Manual arc welding ESAB CaddyArc, OrigoArc, etc.

Manual arc welding is a common welding method that has important features. During the technology, the metal is rapidly heated to the melting temperature. All this is achieved due to the influence of an electric arc, which occurs as an effect of air breakdown between the electrode and the workpieces being welded. Additional materials are introduced into the weld area, they fill the gap that often forms between the parts being welded.

To accurately understand the definition of manual arc welding, it is worth carefully considering the features of creating a welding bath. It is formed in the heating area. In this zone, molten metal and parts are mixed with the filler wire material.

Usually slag floats up in a molten form - this is a burnt coating of a melting electrode or the remains of a non-melting core element. The slag protects the incandescent metal base from the harmful effects of gas mixtures that are in the atmosphere. This effect can cause oxidation of the seam. This facilitates the ingress of gas atoms into its structure, as a result, the strength qualities of the welded joint decrease.

Manual arc welding can be carried out using two types of electrodes - melting and non-melting. The first type is an additive, it can be used without additional elements. When using the second type, a filler wire must be inserted into the melt.
